• PublicActivity

  1 2,820 0.0 Ruby

  Easy activity tracking for models - similar to Github's Public Activity

  

  Project mention: How to Create A Flexible, Performant Audit Trail In Ruby on Rails With A GraphQL API | dev.to | 2021-04-08

  You often want to track what user's are doing throughout your app. There are some gems that help you do this. For example, activerecord_activity_tracker or public_activity. However, gems like these sometimes utilize polymorphic relationships, which don't scale well, or they're very opinionated about the setup. When your requirements differ from the default setup, it can become cumbersome to implement.

  An ActiveRecord plugin for managing lists.

  Project mention: Awesome Ruby and Rails Open Source applications | reddit.com/r/rails | 2021-02-07

  I saw your sort request in the TODO. Check out the acts_as_list gem. It makes sorting lists incredibly easy.

• Closure Tree

  2 1,664 4.4 Ruby

  Easily and efficiently make your ActiveRecord models support hierarchies

  

  Project mention: Hierarchical Structures in PostgreSQL | news.ycombinator.com | 2021-06-25

  I'm actually using materialized views and CTE with PhotoStructure (where hierarchies are arguably the cornerstone of the product).

  It's pretty funny that I landed on this implementation, given that I spent a couple years building https://github.com/ClosureTree/closure_tree (one of the most popular acts-as-hierarchy ActiveRecord gems), as it (unsurprisingly) uses closure trees.

  When CTE isn't available, closure trees are nice, but boy howdy, does that closure tree table get gigantic with deeper graphs.

  If CTE is available, closure trees don't even come close in performance and simplicity.

  (Hint: materialized paths should use a unique separator: ASCII 0x1F is applicable: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C0_and_C1_control_codes#Field_...)

  Just the right amount of Rails eager loading

  

  Project mention: Prosopite is trending on GitHub! Thank you! | reddit.com/r/ruby | 2021-02-20

  Prosopite looks cool, it's is similar to https://github.com/salsify/goldiloader, though goldiloader will also rewrite the query to address the N+1 issue. You should be able to use both and verify goldiloader is working by checking that prosopite logs no N+1 queries.
